Just For Now

I came across the following poem and felt like it was just the right thing to be focusing on when we are in Savasasana (Final Relaxation). So this week, reflect on this as you relax and rejuvenate, whether in class or not:

Just For Now

Just for now, without asking how, let yourself sink into stillness.

Just for now, lay down the weight you so patiently bear upon your shoulders. Feel the earth receive you, and the infinite expanse of sky grow even wider as your awareness reaches up to meet it.

Just for now, allow a wave of breath to enliven your experience.

Breathe out whatever blocks you from the truth. Just for now, be boundless, free, awakened energy tingling in your hands and feet. Drink in the possibility of being who and what you really are so fully alive that when you open your eyes the world looks different, newly born and vibrant, just for now.
